So I met this woman down at the Ohio River. / (eccentric, to say the least!) She was drunk. / (I was working on it) But it was her shoes! / They were a class act all their own. She asked- / I obliged. They make me think of a circus.. / / / / >Featured Home Page<

I wish I had wings so that I could fly like an eagle to the highest points upon the earth and dip into the lowest realms to see all the beauty of this magnificent world we live in. Collaboration with Marvin Collins image of a Hawk “Surveying His Domain” and my image “Grand Canyon – Afternoon”. The Grand Canyon is a steep-sided gorge carved by the Colorado River in the United States state of Arizona. It is largely contained within the Grand Canyon National Park — one of the first national parks in the United States. President Theodore Roosevelt was a major proponent of preservation of the Grand Canyon area, and visited on numerous occasions to hunt and enjoy the scenery. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For those of you who are familiar with Marvin’s magnificent world of birds, this is a collaboration with one of my favorites of Marvin’s combined with on of my Grand Canyon captures. I am in awe of Marvin’s wonderful bird photography. I wanted to see this one against a backdrop that would enhance both images for a perfect marriage of photographic work of two artist’s images captured in Arizona, USA. Marvin’s fabulous image…Shot in Marana AZ “Surveying His Domain” I combined Marvin’s image with my Grand Canyon – Afternoon shot taken a few months ago on my first trip ever to see this wonderful natural wonder of the world “Grand Canyon – Afternoon” I first enhanced the Grand Canyon with Photomatix HDR. Then I used Photoshop CS3 and copied Marvin’s image of the Hawk onto the clipboard and pasted it into the Canyon image. Once I had moved the Hawk where I wanted it in the image, I merged the two. Next, I used Micrografx to clean up the edges where the two images were merged. Finally, I used Micrografx Lighting effects to enhance and bring out the image of the Hawk for a more dramatic final effect.

Louisville, Kentucky USA 21 April 2008 10:06 PM EST This shot was NOT easy due to another photographer trying to take this same night shot using a flash. From this vantage point, the city is one mile away. He ruined 5 of my long exposures with his flash. Finally, I politely ask him to please let me get one good shot. / MCN: C30-NP3U-4430

Isa 40:8: The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. / ______ The natural distribution range of the genus Yucca (49 species and 24 subspecies) covers a vast area of north- and central America. From Baja California in the west, northwards into the southwestern USA, through the drier central states as far north as Canada (Alberta province, Yucca glauca ssp. albertana), and moving east along the Gulf of Mexico, and then north again, through the Atlantic coastal and inland neighbouring states. To the south, the genus is represented throughout Mexico and extends into Guatemala (Yucca elephantipes). Yuccas have adapted to an equally vast range of climatic and ecological conditions. They are to be found in rocky deserts and badlands, in prairies and grassland, in mountainous regions, in light woodland, in coastal sands (Yucca filamentosa), and even in sub-tropical and semi-temperate zones, although these are nearly always arid to semi-arid. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia / _____ This Yucca photo was captured in the mountains above Los Angeles, California a few years back. I used Photoshop Fractalius for the special effects then enhanced the image using Photomatix HDR. Images Do Not Belong To The Public Domain.

Ps 36:5: ¶ Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds. / Ps 36:6: Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast. / Ps 36:7: How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings. / ________ This image was taken at the Huntington Library Botanical gardens a few years back. It was taken in the Springtime. I combiined the original image with one of my hawk images. Merged the two in Photoshop CS3 then added the Orton effect for the final results. Digitaly enhanced art. The Huntington’s superb botanical gardens cover 120 acres (485,624 m²) and the theme gardens contain rare plants from around the world. The gardens are divided into more than a dozen themes, including the Australian Garden, Camellia Collection, Children’s Garden, Desert Garden Conservatory, Conservatory for Botanical Science, Desert Garden, Herb Garden, Japanese Garden, Lily Pond, North Vista, Palm Garden, Rose Garden, Shakespeare garden, Subtropical and Jungle Garden and a Chinese Garden (Liu Fang Yuan 流芳園 or the Garden of Flowing Fragrance) now open in the northern end of the property. In addition, a large open field planted with Eucalyptus trees serves as a re-created “Australian Outback.” The Huntington has a program to protect and propagate endangered plant species. In 1999 and 2002, a specimen of Amorphophallus titanum, or “corpse flower”, bloomed at the facility. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Huntington Library was named after its founder Henry E. Huntington. It’s official name and location is: The Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens / 1151 Oxford Road, San Marino, CA 91108 626-405-2100 Images Do Not Belong To The Public Domain.

I come to the garden alone / While the dew is still on roses / And the voice I hear falling / On my ear the son of God discloses And He walks with me and He talks with me / And He tells me I am His own / And the joy we share as we tarry there / None other has ever known He speaks and the sound of His voice / Is so sweet the birds hush their singing / And the melody that He gave to me / Within my heart is ringing And He walks with me and He talks with me / And He tells me I am His own / And the joy we share as we tarry there / None other has ever known Song Name: He Walks with Me / Artist Name:Anne Murray / Songwriter: T Whitson / Release Date: 1979.01.01 Many people have sung this song including Elvis Presley, Merle Haggard, Alan Jackson and many others. It is one of the most beautiful spiritual songs ever written. This art was inspired by this wonderful song which reminds me that there is always a place where I can go and get away from the world…and He will be there for me. It is not that He is not there for me anywhere else…it is just that I often need to get away from the world and spend time in the garden with Him. I took this photo just north of the city of Orange, California a few years ago. I wanted to give it a more otherworldly effect to portray this lovely song. I altered the hues with Photoshop CS3 and then applied the Orton effect to achieve the final result. Digital art. Images Do Not Belong To The Public Domain.

Waiting at the water’s edge, / Watching all the ships as they are heading for the harbour wall, / I was just a boy, I was just a boy, / Dreaming of the wide world, dreaming of the wide world; Watching as they disappear, / Reading out the names of all the places I have never been, / Looking out to sea, staring out to sea, / Dreaming of a wide world, dreaming of the wide world; I wish I was sailing away, sailing away, / Sailing away, with you tonight, with you tonight; Walking down another street, / Underneath the red lights, I am watching where the shadows fall, / Looking at the girls, listening to the girls, / Dreaming of a new world, dreaming of that new world; I wish I was sailing away, sailing away, / Sailing away, in your arms tonight, / In your arms tonight; I wish I was sailing away, sailing away, / Sailing away, with you now, with you now… Author and singer: Chris De Burgh – Sailing Away / Album: “Flying Colours” – 1988 / ______ Chris sings this song so beautifully and the colors that are displayed in his concert are a perfect match for this work. / _____ I wanted to create a work after the style of Picasso only updated and more modernized that symboized freedom. To me, sailing is like flying…a type of freedom unlike any other…the wind in your face, the cool spray of water, the salt sea air…leave all your cares behind and let’s go sailing away. I started with a photograph I took in Dana Point Harbor. Then I used Micrgrafx to add a painterly effect. After that I used Photomatix to deepen the colors with HDR. Next, I treated the image with Photoshop CS3 plugin Redfield Fractalius. For the final result, I added the Orton effect. Digital art. / _______ Images Do Not Belong To The Public Domain.

Crown Jewel ~ inspired by the Taj Mahal, which is often referred to as / ‘Poetry in Stone’ The History of Lost Love / Shah Jahan of the Mogul dynasty was yet to accede the throne when he heard about the unsurpassed beauty of Mumtaz. He took Mumtaz as his third wife in 1612. For the next 18 years Shah Jahan and Mumtaz were inseparable. Shah Jahan took his wife along on every journey and war campaign. Over the years Mumtaz came to be his best friend, his critic and a canny political adviser. Mumtaz was expecting their 14th child when Shah Jahan embarked on a campaign against the Lodhi Empire in 1631. In the heat of the Indian summer, the army traveled to the Deccans. Mumtaz, who had accompanied the emperor, went through a rigorous childbirth. She died in Burhanpur. On her deathbed, she asked her husband to promise her that he would build a monument to their love. Legend has it that he locked himself in his room for eight days without food after Mumtaz passed away. After burying Mumtaz temporarily in Burhanpur, Shah Jahan went about constructing the Taj Mahal in right earnest. He summoned the best architects and artisans from far away lands like Multan, Kannauj, Lahore, Iraq and Persia. He arranged for the best marble from all around. It took 22 years, 22,000 people, 400 elephants and 32 million rupees to build the Taj Mahal. The result: an awe-inspiring structure, which is one of the most globally recognized symbols of grace and beauty. The Magnificent Monument / Built on a raised, square platform it is as tall as a 20-storey building. You enter through an imposing gateway. The complex consists of an elaborate garden set in the typical charbagh style, a mosque, a guesthouse and several other charming buildings. The mausoleum itself stands at the farthest end of the complex, right along the Yamuna River. The signature central dome (58 ft in diameter and 213 ft high) is truly magnificent and is echoed in the smaller domed chambers on all sides. The four slender minarets that rise from the corners of the mausoleum complete the picture of symmetry. The undisputed majesty and beauty is further reflected in the exquisite artistry created by inspired artisans from Baghdad, Shiraz and Bukhara. Exquisite floral patterns and calligraphy on both the exterior and interior were inlaid with precious stones such as jasper and agate. Quotations from the Koran were etched into stone archways; a pinnacle was set on the central dome; and thus came to life the most splendid resting place a lover could ever hope to find on this planet! By Ravi Kunjithai / Beautiful intricate abstract design bursting forth in hues of light blue and gray, yellow / orange, and even a hint of rose, all interspersed with lovely metalic golds.

Young couple in love enjoying a sunset in Cades Cove, Great Smoky Mountain National Park, USA. Other works in the Cades Cove Collection: About Cades Cove: Cades Cove (formally known as Tuckaleechee Cove) is found in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee, USA. Cades Cove / was a working farm valley until the 1930’s when the National Park was formed. The Park Service has attempted to recreate the 19th century feel of this farming valley and preserve it for future generations. Before the first white settler arrived on the scene, Cades Cove had been a part of the Cherokee Indians’ domain. Abrams Creek and Abrams Falls are features named for a prominent Cherokee chief named “Old Abram” who at one time lived in a village at Chilhowee on the Little Tennessee River. According to tradition, Old Abram’s wife was named Kate, and Cades (Kate’s) Cove was named after her. Please enjoy these other images:

We all have artists on our watchlist that we think are wonderful, but who may not get the recognition they deserve or their work just gets passed by in the influx of daily work here on Redbubble. I would like to form a journal entry here that serves the purpose of bringing awareness and traffic to these underappreciated artists, so my proposal is that anyone who wished to come into this journal and post 1 or 2 links to artists on their watchlists whom they absolutely adore. This idea was originally begun by JULIE LANGFORD so please be sure to visit her journal HERE too for more amazing work! Also feel free to link to their images as well, and try not to repeat the same artists as have already been mentioned and promoted. This way we can get the word out about so many of these tremendous hidden talents here at Redbubble. I have two artists I would now like to introduce to you that I have on my watchlist: David Linkenauger and Shelley Spillenaar David is one of my fellow home state photographers and takes really nice waterscape images, and Shelley in my mmind has a wonderful eye and a keen sense of capturing the right moment with animals. Please go take a look at the wonderful work of these two artists, and if you like what you see be sure to tell them so and maybe even add them to your watchlist! Also, be sure to scan your own watchlist for someone who you think deserves more attention than they are currently getting in the world of Redbubble! Let’s make this a huge success!

This is a print of the original piece entitled “I will wait for you here” / It was hand drawn with ink and digitally altered with color and texture. The background is old fabric that was scanned and copied into the print. I absolutely adore this piece. It shoots me right back to fifth grade when my best friend had her dad build us a swing in the woods. I used to swing for hours looking up at the birds…and wait. Im not sure what I was waiting for back then…but it didnt matter, I was happiest there. This print is available for purchase as cards that you can mail to someone you adore (Or more likely, keep for yourself and frame!) and a few prints.

When you first arrive in Chloride you will see the welcome sign to your right. Beside the Welcome sign, you will see this mural. It has had its share of desert heat an wear, but it introduces you to the people and spirit of the town. A fun place with a lot of fun people. I had several people ask how it got its name so I did some research and here is what I learned. Depending on what you read or to whom you speak, Chloride had its beginnings in the early 1860s – 1862 or 1863. The reason for its beginning is pretty well agreed upon. Silver, Silver Chloride! Hence, the name of the village….Chloride. Many metals were actually mined in Chloride including gold, silver, lead, zinc, copper, molybdenum, and vanadium with silver being the predominate ore. Soldiers from Fort Mohave were more interested in the gold and silver than maintaining law and order. Until a peace treaty was signed with the Native Americans, no one else was too interested in the area until after 1870. / Chloride, Arizona HDR enhanced This is the second of a series about the mining town of Chloride, Arizona.

This is another shot of the Grand Canyon shot a couple of months ago on my first trip to ever see this magnificent wonder of the world. Most visitors to the park come to the South Rim, arriving on Arizona Highway 64. The Highway enters the park through the South Entrance, near Tusayan, Arizona, and heads eastward, leaving the park through the East Entrance. This is the road we took when visiting the Grand Canyon. All park accommodations are operated by the Xanterra corporation. Park headquarters are at Grand Canyon Village, a short distance from the South Entrance, being also the center of the most popular viewpoints. Some thirty miles of the South Rim are accessible by road. Grand Canyon National Park is one of the United States’ oldest national parks and is located in Arizona. Within the park lies the Grand Canyon, a gorge of the Colorado River, considered to be one of the major natural wonders of the world. The park covers 1,902 mi² (4927 km²) of unincorporated area in Coconino County and Mohave County. The area around the Grand Canyon became a national monument on January 11, 1908 and was designated national park on February 26, 1919. The creation of the park was an early success of the environmental conservation movement; its National Park status may have helped thwart proposals to dam the Colorado River within its boundaries. (Lack of this fame may have enabled Glen Canyon Dam to be built upriver, flooding Glen Canyon and creating Lake Powell.) UNESCO has declared it as a World Heritage Site.
